Surveillance study reveals class D carbapenemase dominance in carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, highlighting urgent needs for clinical infection control.
The study isolates showed a high level of antibiotic resistance. Class D carbapenemases were more prevalent in our CRAB isolate collection. The resistance genes were found in various combinations. This study emphasizes the importance of strengthening surveillance and stringent infection control measures in clinical settings to prevent the emergence and further spread of such isolates.
